The Brilliant Brain of Ben

Understanding Asperger's Through the Eyes of a Brilliant Kid

Asperger'sAges 5–10

Ben loves his routines and numbers galore – he counts every brick, knows every planet, and can tell you facts about the shark. Some kids think he's a little bit shy, but Ben has a brain built for stars, learning, and light!

When Miss Candace helps the class understand Asperger's, Ben's friends start seeing the wonder inside — and Ben learns to ask for a calm, safe place when things get too loud.
